There are several known types of turret. One, the anti-ship type, is a slow-tracking heavy turret found along the outer edge of both hangar bays.

They have longer barrels than other turrets. Above each anti-ship turret is an anti-fighter turret. They are flatter and thinner in appearance and track much faster.

Their barrels are smaller and closer together. These weapons however lack the power to significantly damage capital ships. The forward lasers have only been seen in The Living Legend Part 2 and The Hand of God and are often confused with anti-ship missiles because they use the same graphics.

They are orange-colored beam weapons solely for capital ship use. It is not known whether all Battlestars had these lasers or not.

When the Galactica attacks a Baseship in "The Hand of God" Commander Adama explicit states that they have reconfigured their lasers to be able to attack the Baseship and showing that they are not a standard mode of weaponry.

These heavy missiles give a Battlestar enough firepower to utterly destroy at least two Basestars. The only example of their use is in The Living Legend, Part 2 , where they are fired at the same time as, and often confused with, the forward lasers.

It is not known whether all Battlestars had missiles or whether only some did. The Galactica herself is never seen using them or even referring to having them.

When she takes on a Cylon Baseship in "The Hand Of God" she attacks it by reconfiguring her lasers, not by using any missiles. Eight Battlestars were seen or mentioned by name during the TV series.
